Hi,
As you may know, my horse Yellow is dead two weeks ago :(
I went to his breeder this weekend and I decided to buy his Half Brother "Bobby".
Do you think he's Dunalino ? His father is sorrel and his mother is palomino... but the mother's father is Dunskin... I saw the mother and I could'nt see any trace of dun gene as dorsal line or zebra stripes on the legs.
Bobby has a dorsal stripe and his legs are darker as the rest of the body and he also have zebra stripes. Unfortunatly, I don't have picture of his legs yet and it's not clear on the picture, but I assure you that the zebra stripes are clearly marked.
Is it possible that the dun gene come from his grand father ???
Thank you :)

Re: Yellow's Half Brother color ?
Oh very cool, yes I think he looks dunalino! The dam must have been dunalino too.
